I LOVE Disney World. HATE Disneyland.


South Jerey Born and raised for the first 18 years, going on year 18 this September of LA. I'm a confused soul for sure.

Disneyland is superior to MK tho

 

[sdreaper]

A few of my favorite things

1. Tackle Hugs
2. Being Outside
3. Guacamole
4. Off Roading (the bike kind)
5. Camping (but mostly I hate tents).
6. Dogs
7. Tyrsis hating on things.

Because of #3, we can no longer drink beers together. Most of the rest I would agree with though.

 

[Tyrsis]

2011 was it bro. Pre Cars Land. So mellow. We rented DVC points for 4 years and stayed in 2BR 1200' suites at GC facing DCA. Memoriez.


**** this sounds like a beer convo.

someone call Sebowski cause even I can't read these acronyms

Both you and Tyrsis need to shut your hoar mouths.

 

[hi im richie]

I remember when I didn't like guac. I was such a dumb child.

 

[arren]

I believe this is why we're all here to start with.

I don't think you're allowed to live in San Diego tbh. #AvocadosIsLife

2009 and 2010 I had a socal pass. Oh the days of ditching class to go hang all day at Disney midweek.

I only ever claim to be smart in my job and my gaming....everything aside from that is entirely up in the air.

But seriously, I keep trying it and just...bleh each time. Tacos/burritos/nachos/different meats/chips I just can't. Same can be said with sushi, although I will eat Uni and those philadelphia rolls.

I'll ride Flash Mountain with you anytime.

I can only stand avocado on sushi / poke. But I don't want it making my steaming hot, deliciously greasy carne asada burrito COLD and SOGGY. Gross.

Sushi is ******* disgusting.

It's just fish, man.

Fish needs fire. Or has sushi evolved to not only raw?

When is the last time you've actually had sashimi or poke?

I feel like Hillcrest - maybe 8 years ago? Forget the name of the restaurant but VERY close to the 15.

Also scarred for life from Dim Sum year 1999. FIL ( now, GF's dad then ) made sure tripe, chicken feet, "blood jello cubes" et al came. He had a good time. Now I am extremely careful around Asian food.

This is you, isn't it

Definitely some **** I don't get down with (tripe, chicken feet, ugh) but having asian in-laws has definitely made me more adventurous. Go and try tuna poke again. Not salmon, not albacore - get ahi. Super mild, absolutely no fishiness.

Will do. If I bring it up the wife will:

The fewer people that like camping the better for those who do. But all are welcome of course; camping with beer people is much like a bottle share where no one drives home.

This I can agree with you on, which is why burritos should never have guac or sour cream inside. Pico MAYBE but rather not. I will administer my guac dosages per bite. No soggy burritos allowed.

 

[sdreaper]

All this talk of burritos has me feeling the need for a TJ Taco's trip this evening....mmmmm...all the greatness of Tacos El Gordo without the lines. Also I like their salsa better, has a much better kick. Carne asada tastes better at El Gordo though, but since I mostly just get adobada...meh.

I do miss CA Mexi food. Nothing like a breakfast burrito. This was our goto walking distance joint:

La Mesita Mexican Food
7012 University Ave, La Mesa, CA 91941
(619) 697-4455

https://goo.gl/maps/anuwmUedGNQ2

Pretty damn good. I like the TexMex here but haven't found a legit Mexi joint.

Tex BBQ doesn't make up for lack of CA Mexi?

Dude, even in downtown Milwaukee I was able to find legit mexi food. Granted they finally closed last year, but still. It was no hole-in-the-wall taco shop but a much better than average sit down joint where they didn't believe in carding, and your first trip there you had to ride the mechanical chili in the window while wearing the sombrero....just because.

It's good, but on the expensive side. Ive been to 2 of the top rated joints in town and enjoyed them both a lot. We have a lot of Mexican restaurants but they just don't do a burrito right. My favorite texmex doesn't agree with the wife so we don't dine there much. And in thinking about that, she's gone Friday so I better stuff my face silly.

In the end, I'd rather stuff my face with more rice and beans than brisket. And ******* I miss breakfast burritos.

 

[Sage1]

ride the mechanical chili in the window while wearing the sombrero

is this a euphemism

 

[sdreaper]

I really wish it was. There legit was a red mechanical chili in the area surrounded by windows so ppl can laugh at you both inside and outside of the place.

Here is the picture from inside:
